More great photos, love seeing the "other" bikes, the privateers. No118 is the Krauser Kawasaki MK2, I think there was a story about that bike from the next owners, its on the first page of this thread by Jinx.
Do you have a date for the last photo, and anymore of #31 Harry Klinzmann, thanks

Glad you like them. As far as dates about all i can say is that I went to bike week in my '57 GMC ex-church bus in '79, '80 , 'and '81.
We hauled 2 750 Hondas and 3 900 and 1000 Kawasakis the first year. I slept in the bus and got a track pass for the week. I took my showers at the track.
In "80 it was down to 1 750 ,1 1000 and my Ducati 860. Same deal except there were 3 sleeping in the bus.
In '81, we had 1 DOHC 750F Honda , 1 1000 and my 860. Living in the bus eating out or grilling and drinking in the bars.
I carried a 35mm SLR everywhere. But you might understand now why the dates are a blur.

The one shot I got of Rainey's GPZ 750 before the camera went on strike.
Honda came out blazing in 1983 winning the first 6 races of the new 750 sized Suberbike championship.
Kawasaki was running their air-cooled 2 valve against the new water-cooled 4 - valve V-4 Honda. They got Rob Muzzy to up the horsepower and then Rainey won the next 6 races and took the championship.
Check out the details, not a run of the mill Kawasaki. Twin plugs,dry clutch,etc.
